Wednesday, August 2, 7:00 pm – Rendezvous by The River

The Neighborhood Association of the Back Bay Special Events Committee invites you to a live evening on the Esplanade with the Boston Landmarks Orchestra on Wednesday Aug 2nd  at 7:00 P.M. at the DCR Hatch Shell.  If there was ever a reason to join NABB now, this is it.

The concert will feature George Gershwin’s An American in Paris and a Dvorak cello concerto. A special prelude concert with the Four Strings Academy will set the stage for the rest of the evening. 

Please feel free to bring a picnic or snack for dining under the stars at the event. You are welcome to bring chairs, towels and blankets and even your dogs! No alcoholic beverages are allowed in the park. There is no charge for this event. However, chairs are available for rental that evening for $5 each. We will be gathering near the information booth. Look for the NABB sign. 

Please RSVP to specialevents@nabbonline.org. if you are planning on attending the event. Payment for the chair will be at the event.


Restoring the Gardens at Florence Court, County Fermanagh, On Demand

A short National Trust video will transport you to the gardens of Florence Court – a Georgian house surrounded by the rolling countryside of West Fermanagh. Discover how the estate, cared for by the National Trust, is being restored with recent projects focussing on the kitchen garden and the rebuilding of glass houses. Previous work has restored the sawmill, carpenter shop and forge. You’ll also find out fresh veg was once prepared in the kitchen and meet a volunteer helping to care for the 90 different varieties of heritage apple trees that grow here.
